Favorite Pizza Toppings
In recent years, pizza has become an international food and the toppings
can be extensively varied to meet local variations in taste.
These pizzas consist of the same basic design but include an exceptionally
diverse choice of ingredients, such as anchovies, egg, pineapple, coconut,
sauerkraut, eggplant, lamb, couscous, chicken, fish, and shellfish, meats
done in ethnic styles such as Moroccan lamb, kebab or even chicken tikka
masala, and non-traditional spices such as curry and Thai sweet chili. Pizzas
can also be made without meat for vegetarians, and without cheese for vegans.

ingredients such as scrambled eggs. "Supreme" pizzas typically include a
